“Christina did it again. Frankie had another enjoyable vacation in Ladora. At almost 16 years old, he sometimes needs a little extra and Christina gave him the royal treatment.”
About: My husband and I have 8 Huskies that we have rescued. I have a ton of patience and lots of love. Your dog will be considered as part of our pack. I will be the one taking care of your baby. I work at a hospital 4 days a week. Our dogs are kenneled for their safety while I'm at work. They are fed twice a day (morning and night) and walked 2 miles a day We do not have a fenced in yard, but we do have tie outs so your dog will be safe. They are allowed on the furniture and we have a full basket of bones and toys to share.
About: I’ve always been an animal lover. I have 5 dogs and 2 cats of my own. I’ve grown up around animals all my life and I know it can be hard sometime to watch them so that’s why chose to help you out. I want you be comfortable leaving your pet with someone that will love them as much as you do. I currently do daycare for two kids so I am at home majority of the day so I am willing to watch your pet during the day or even at night if that is what’s needed I have 2 acres of fenced in pastures and access to indoors. I have a mix of inside and outside dogs. At night they all come inside though.

Tammy & Ken F.
“I have had two high maintenance and loveable huskies which made me very concerned about leaving them with a less experienced animal care provider. After seeing Tammy love and care for her own dogs (a variety inclyding huskies) I knew she was the right choice for us. I was very happy that ahe kept me updated with photos of them and their activities each day. When I returned to get them they were exhausted from all the play and I could tell my dogs lived being there. We now call her place our dog vacation resort. I still have a husky and now a small sichon. I have full trust that while I am on my 10 day vacation, my dogs will be safe, loved, we'll cater for and socialized.”
